    Basically I'm looking into an upgrade from my vmodas.



    And they have worked great, deep rich bass, strong thumps, great treble and vocal, the only problem i've had with these headphones is that they break really easy by pulling the cord from the earbuds. But as bad as that might sound v-moda has replaced them every time with a brand new set in less than 2 days.

    So I have came to two options upon research;

    http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Turbin.../dp/B001LNO722

    MONSTER TURBINE :




    or the next upgrade from V-moda.


    V-moda VIBE II :





    I would like to try out some new headphones out, like the turbines, but the vmoda i have had before and been loyal too and can only asume that the vmoda II are better.

    Haha yeah, but i love quality and i'm willing to spend it. Considering I have a job and i'm able to still mooch off my parents living space for at least a year or two more i can put my money into gas and stuff.

    :P

    Then why don't you buy some decent headphones ?!
    There are some decent and good looking "on-hear" headphones that you can also wear on teh streets
    Or in case you wanna listen to music at home or uni/school only then you can also get "ear-surrounding" headphones .. like me

    Last year I bought me the AKG K 242 HD Headphones .. which have awesome sound ... I always use them when I'm at home or uni or when I go for long distances in plane or train ..
    And for short distances I use the iPod headphones .. which are actually crap because they hurt my ears as soon as I use them longer than 1 hour ... but for short distances they are just fine

    And my AKG Headphones never hurt at all .. I can wear them a whole day listeing to max volume music and my ears do not hurt at all

    Well i thought about it, and they are really decent already thats why im considering them. I know on ear headphones or ear surround will ALWAYS sound better. (fact bigger higher quality magnets and materials.)

    But im asking for earbuds, something discreet, easily unnoticeable and not in the way

    I also am a bass freak for earbuds, thats why i chose these two over sennheiser, or bose, etc.

    I bought mine for about 130€ .. and it's totally worth it .
    They had the best quality/price rate back then .. and these headphones will last for a life ... or until I fall asleep and smash my head against the floor
